My My My Delilah by CarmenCo Trio

70% music and 30% spoken word, My My My Delilah! is a riotous concert-play in which the Bible’s most notorious femme fatale finally gets to tell her side of the story. What really motivated her betrayal of Samson? Was she chasing fame, settling scores, or simply fed up with all that hair?

Packed with virtuosic live music, sharp comedy and unexpected twists, this irreverent tale of rivalry, superstardom, power and vanity features music from some of opera’s greatest hits, ingeniously reimagined for CarmenCo Trio’s unique combination of flute/voice and two guitars. The new show from the trio behind A Pocket Opera, My My My Delilah! is a witty, exhilarating mix of classical music, storytelling and comedy that audiences won’t soon forget.

They have toured A Pocket Opera – a comedic concert presented as a play, with costumes, props and a storyline roughly following Bizet’s Carmen, but told from her point of view – to over 55 venues to date, all over the UK from Orkney, Aberdeen and Oban to West Wales, London and Dorchester. The rave reception this Pocket Opera received inspired them to present their next show, “My My My Delilah which we will hear in Dumfries in January 2027”.
